Saints Row 4 has stormed to the top of the UK gaming charts, with fellow launch title Splinter Cell: Blacklist in at second. Disney Infinity has debuted at a commendable fourth.

Score-keepers UKIE has confirmed that Saints Row 4 is the UK’s fourth biggest game launch of 2013, behind Tomb Raider, BioShock Infinite and The Last of Us, yet it has failed to match the opening week sales of Saints Row: The Third.

Meanwhile, a recent report suggested that Disney Infinity has cost Disney $100 million and that failure to ignite sales could force real change at the company.

Splinter Cell Blacklist was hailed as a step closer to form by many critics and gamers, but Ubisoft has stressed that the series is still “evolving” and doesn’t have the formulaic luxury of the Assassin’s Creed franchise. The publisher has explained why in a new interview.
